OIDS Scoring




Biocrete Home Base The Biocrete Home Base: 8,000 points. It is usually shielded so it is difficult to destroy. It fires missiles, photons, and launches all kinds of Biocrete ships.  
  Tower The tower: 100 - 6,000 points depending on how tall it is when you destroy it. The tower is very inconspicuous when it is in its dormant state, looking like a clod of dirt on the surface of a planetoid. It is triggered by your presence or by a nearby shot. Once it detects you, it blinks it beacon, and then begins to rise up from the ground. When it reaches its full size, it breaks open, shooting photons and Spheres at a high rate of speed.

High Scores

Registered users can enter their names when they score exceptionally well on a given galaxy. Once a high score is entered, you have the option of posting it on the OIDS High Scores list on the Internet. There are two score lists, one is for all-time high scores, and the other one is reset at the start of each month. If you want to post your score later, don't worry. You can use the "Post High Score" command on the File menu anytime. Just select the Galaxy that you want to post and then choose the "Post High Score" command.
